Chapter 62 The explosion in Miaochun Pavilion

The sudden loud noise brought a lot of excitement to the lonely and peaceful night.

People who were still sleeping were also awakened by the sudden loud noise, and they quickly ordered people to go and see what was going on.

Nishang Lake boiled instantly under this huge noise.

People enjoying themselves in Nishang Lake were frightened by the huge explosion and panicked, crying for help. In an instant, the cries, calls for help, and angry curses were mixed together.

I don’t know if it’s because the government officials in this era are all good at kung fu, but they hurried over to maintain order before it was time to drink tea. Under the command of the official, they started to put out the fire and save people in an orderly manner!

…

"Your Majesty! Your Majesty! Something's wrong! Something happened!" A eunuch called to the Emperor anxiously.

"What's the big deal? Are you so panicked?!" The emperor's displeased voice came from the room.

"Your Majesty! Miaochun Pavilion has been burned down!" the eunuch quickly reported.

"If it's burned, it's burned! There's nothing to make a fuss about. It's just a small Miaochun Pavilion. Put out the fire and build it later! If there's nothing particularly important, get out of here!" The emperor, who was hugging the beauty, fell into a deep sleep due to exertion.

As a result, I was woken up by someone before I slept for long, and I couldn't help but feel angry.

When the eunuch who reported the matter outside the door saw the emperor being angry, he had no choice but to keep silent and pace back and forth outside the door. His face was full of anxiety, which fully showed the urgency of the matter.

inside the house.

The imperial concubine was also awakened by the eunuch's sharp and anxious report. She opened her hazy eyes, nestled in the emperor's arms, and kept drawing circles on his chest, "Your Majesty, since you came to report late at night,

It must be a very important matter, so it would be better to let the servants come in and explain it in detail." As soon as the imperial concubine woke up from her sleep, she heard the eunuch outside the door saying that something had happened in Miaochun Pavilion, and thought that Bi Yuntao was going to Miaochun Pavilion today.

Yan Yan was deeply afraid that something might happen to his son, but he could not go beyond the emperor and let the eunuch come in to report the matter, so he had to tactfully let the emperor see the eunuch who made the report.

The emperor kissed the imperial concubine's forehead lovingly, "Have you woken up my beloved concubine?!" The emperor was woken up by his servants. He was a little angry at first, but when he saw the beauty in his arms, he also woke up, and was treated like this by the imperial concubine again.

He was teasing, but he didn't care about the eunuch outside the door. His anger surged, he got on his horse and suppressed the imperial concubine's body.

"Your Majesty!" The Imperial Concubine turned her head, stretched out her catkins to block the Emperor's kiss, and said coquettishly, "Your Majesty! Business is important. Once it's taken care of, I have plenty of time to spend with you!"

"Hey!" The emperor also knew that business was important. He frowned and couldn't help but sigh, and then reluctantly got up from the imperial concubine.

"Your Majesty! I will change your clothes for you!" The imperial concubine stood up, picked up the clothes scattered on the floor, and changed the emperor's clothes herself. Of course, the emperor could not easily let go of the beauty who was changing her clothes, and dishonestly touched her, which offended the imperial concubine.

There was another burst of jealousy.

After several twists and turns, the emperor finally finished changing his clothes under the service of the imperial concubine. Of course, the imperial concubine was also out of breath, and the emperor also suffered a lot of looks and blame.

"Tell me! What's so important?! You came here in the middle of the night to disturb my rest!" The emperor took a sip of tea and looked at the imperial concubine behind the veil. He absentmindedly asked the kneeling eunuch, all he could think about was

The scene where I was changing my clothes just now.

"Go back to the emperor! There is a fire in Miaochun Pavilion. Mr. Zuo Xiang has already led people to put out the fire, but..."

"But what? You're hesitant, hurry up and say it!" The emperor put down the tea cup with a loud noise.

Hiding behind the gauze curtain, the imperial concubine heard the word "but" and thought of Bi Yuntao going to the Miaochun Pavilion for a banquet today. She was deeply afraid of getting bad news about him. Although the eunuch's next words did not mention what she was worried about.

, but still couldn't help but feel worried and worried about Bi Yuntao.

Seeing that the emperor was still angry, the eunuch trembled all over and trembled and apologized quickly, "Your Majesty, forgive me. Prime Minister Zuo asked me to report to the Emperor that the third prince was holding a banquet in Miaochun Pavilion at that time and is now trying his best to save him."

Hearing that the third prince was hosting a banquet at Miaochun Pavilion, the emperor couldn't help but frowned. However, when he heard that the third prince was in trouble and did not care about the emperor's manners and etiquette, the emperor was shocked, "What did you say?! Why didn't you

"You told me earlier?!" He slammed the table angrily, "Come here, pull him down and kill him, I'm so angry!"

"Your Majesty! Have mercy on me!" The eunuch knelt on the ground, trembling in fear, and kowtowed to beg for mercy.

"Your Majesty! Prime Minister Zuo wants to see you!" At this time, a guard reported outside the house. Very good, Prime Minister Zuo's ancestral secret technique of interrupting was activated again.

"Please! Wait!" The emperor thought that the imperial concubine was still there, so he quickly called the guards, "Let Prime Minister Zuo go to the imperial study to see me!"

"As for you!" The emperor looked coldly at the eunuch who was kneeling on the ground. The imperial concubine, who was feeling weak all over and lying on the bed, heard that something happened to the third prince, and the left minister came to see the emperor again to discuss the matter.

He tensed up for no reason and couldn't sit still. He quickly stood up and dressed, and at the same time stopped the emperor. "Your Majesty, please spare his life first. Don't you, the Prime Minister of the Left, have something important to do with you? Go and discuss the matter quickly."

Well, don’t miss your business for a servant.”

When the emperor saw the imperial concubine begging for mercy, he borrowed the donkey from the slope, knowing that business was important. "Humph! Since the imperial concubine is interceding for you, I will spare you today!" After saying that, he walked directly to the imperial study room.

"Thank you, Your Majesty! Thank you, the Imperial Concubine!" The eunuch kowtowed repeatedly to express his gratitude.

Seeing that the emperor had gone away, the imperial concubine said, "Okay! The emperor has left! Get up and talk to me about what happened today?"

The eunuch quickly stood up and respectfully told what he knew.

"Okay! You go down first and call me Xiaolan!" Seeing that the eunuch didn't know much, he waved his hand impatiently and asked him to go down and call Xiaolan.

Xiaolan, who was waiting outside the house, learned that the imperial concubine had summoned her, rubbed her somewhat groggy eyes, and hurriedly entered the room.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!" Xiaolan was summoned by the retreating eunuch and entered the room, calling out to the Imperial Concubine who was pacing back and forth anxiously.

"Xiaolan, please go to Prince Qi's Mansion to find out about Tao'er. Today is the day when the third prince entertains Tao'er. Now that something has happened to the third prince, and we don't know about Tao'er's situation, I am very worried. Servant

I don’t know much about the whole thing, and I’m afraid that something might happen to Tao’er…” The imperial concubine, who had come back to her senses, saw Xiaolan and gave Xiaolan anxious instructions.

When Xiaolan heard that something had happened to King Qi, she was extremely anxious and couldn't help but worry about him.

The imperial concubine had been worried about chaos for a long time and did not see the worry on Xiaolan's face. She continued to instruct Xiaolan, "If you don't see anyone in Prince Qi's mansion, go to Zuo Xiang's mansion and have a look. Meng Ruolang will follow Taoer all day long.

Come on, I think he knows Taoer’s current situation best!”

"Yes!" Xiaolan took a deep breath, calmed down her mood, nodded quickly in response, then tapped her toes on the ground, used Qing Kung Fu to fly out of the window, and disappeared after a few breaths.

"Tao'er! Don't let anything happen to you!" The imperial concubine looked out the window blankly, worried about Bi Yuntao.

…

Royal study room.

"Kowtow to the emperor! My emperor..."

"Okay! No courtesy!" As soon as the emperor entered the royal study, he waved his hand directly to the left prime minister and stopped him from saluting.

The emperor took the tea that was passed to him, fiddled with the tea leaves in the cup, and asked, "How is Yunpeng?"

"Thank you, Your Majesty!" Zuo Xiang thanked him. "Go back to Your Majesty! The third prince is no longer in danger, but..." Zuo Xiang hesitated.

When the emperor heard this pause, he felt a headache. He couldn't help pinching his eyebrows and said displeased: "But what?! Why are you all so hesitant today? If you have anything, just say it quickly!"

Naturally, Zuo Xiang didn't know what happened before, let alone why the emperor said such a sentence, but seeing the anger on the emperor's face, he suppressed the doubts in his heart and quickly bowed to reply.

"Although the third prince is no longer in danger, he has a broken leg. Moreover, the old minister also discovered the remaining half of the body of Shen Xu, the son of the Minister of Household Affairs."

"Ahem!" The emperor choked on his tea, "You mean the son of the Minister of the Ministry of Finance who came to have a son is also there? And he's dead?!"

"Yes! The old minister has already asked the girls of Miaochun Pavilion and said that today the third prince is hosting a banquet in Miaochun Pavilion for the King of Qi. The people accompanying him are Shen Xu, the son of the Minister of Hubu, and the son of the Minister of Etiquette.

Han Wuyong. Han Wuyong was able to go out at that time, so he survived!"

"What about Prince Qi?!" When the emperor heard that Bu Yuntao was there, he didn't bother to ask about the third prince's injury, so he anxiously asked about Bi Yuntao's situation.

Seeing that the emperor was so impatient, Prime Minister Zuo quickly spoke out to comfort the emperor, "Your Majesty! Be patient! The old minister did not find the figure of King Qi, but only found the burnt head of a woman and half of Shen Xu's body.

Moreover, the old minister has already confirmed that there is a jade pendant with the vague words Shen Xu engraved on it hanging around his waist."

"Huh!" The emperor exhaled with relief, slumped down on the chair, and wiped away the sweat on his forehead caused by anxiety and panic.

The emperor calmed down and asked the question in his heart. "How is Yunpeng doing now? How come Shen Xu is left with half of his body, and what happened to that woman's head?! Do you know how Miaochun Pavilion caught fire?

?”

"Back to the Emperor! The third prince is fine and is currently recuperating at the imperial doctor. There was a loud noise before the fire in Miaochun Pavilion, and then a fire broke out."

"You mean there was a loud noise, and then a fire broke out in Miaochun Pavilion?!"

"Yes! Now that the fire has been put out, I sent my servants to check it out. The cause of the fire should be this thing! As for why Shen Xu only has half of his body left and the woman's head, it's all because of this thing!" Before he finished speaking, Zuo

The prime minister took out a cylindrical object from his sleeve that did not have time to burn and explode. It was the explosive that Bi Yuntao had previously placed in Miaochun Pavilion.

"What is this?!" The emperor took the item handed over by Zuo Xiang and looked around, puzzled.

"Back to the Emperor! This item is similar to the Sky Thunder in our Ordnance Department, and it is more powerful than the Sky Thunder!"
